Why did the fall of the Bastille become a symbol of the French Revolution?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It symbolised the people's challenge to royal absolutism and repression.

The Bastille was a fortress-prison in Paris and was widely viewed as a symbol of arbitrary royal power and political repression. Its capture by the people on 14 July 1789 became a powerful sign of popular revolt against the monarchy. It did not immediately create a republic; France was declared a republic in 1792. Exam tip: remember the fall of the Bastille, 14 July 1789, as a major symbol of the French Revolution.
